Fullhouse Lifestyle Store and Cafe is famous with their interior arrangement...
my first visit was their first outlet in NZX...
then the Sunway Giza outlet~
this time, our birthday girl wanted to visit the Jalan Yap Kwan Seng outlet...
driving to KL after office hour was crazy...
stuck in the jam for almost 2 hours to reach the cafe...
walked into the cafe, was really disappointed on their service and the environment...
the sofa was in bad condition...
the pieces of leather came out from the sofa everytime we moved... mad
hardly get a waiter to approach us even we've put our hands up high...
the whole cafe was not maintain in good condition... sad
thank God~ their food was still okay...
Mushroom Soup  RM 8.90

Mushroom Soup RM 8.90

 
tasted like normal canned soup...sad
Alfredo Spaghetti  RM 17.90

Alfredo Spaghetti RM 17.90

 
like the milky creamy base...
generous on the ingredients too...
Al Funghi Spaghetti  RM 14.90

Al Funghi Spaghetti RM 14.90

very good vegetarian pasta...
Soft Shell Crab  RM 10.90

Soft Shell Crab RM 10.90

 
wasn't crispy enough...
but my friend said couldn't expect much on the amount they charged...
Pan Sear Dory Fish  RM 16.90

Pan Sear Dory Fish RM 16.90

 
this was the best dish of the night...
i love the sautéed sugar pea shoots and mushrooms on top very much...
bedded on siew pak choy with lemon grass cream...
Braised Lamb Shank  RM 28.90

Braised Lamb Shank RM 28.90

 
their braised lamb shank was not bad...
the lamb was juicy and tender...
served with ratatouille...
Seared Atlantic Salmon  RM 26.90

Seared Atlantic Salmon RM 26.90

 
the salmon was slightly overcooked, but still okay...
only the teriyaki sauce made the salmon was a bit too salty to my liking...
served with mashed potatoes, greens and deep fried lotus root...
Profiterole  RM 9.90

Profiterole RM 9.90

 
this was the worst dessert i've ever had...
it tasted really weird and with too much of cream in it~

i think Fullhouse should look into the maintenance of the Jalan Yap Kwan Seng outlet...
the condition was so poor that we can't really enjoy ourselves there~
of all, i would say Sunway Giza and Sunway Pyramid have the best outlets...
if you wanted to visit Fullhouse, pick these two... ^^

Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Western variety | Restaurant | Pizza/Pasta | Halal | Sweets/Snack

our gang's gathering for the month of September~
we had it at Swensen's, Subang Parade...
to celebrate his birthday and also to try Swensen's food...
Swensen's, Subang Parade looks very much better after the renovation...
it was brighter, the colour contrast of white and red make the restaurant looks cleaner and more comfortable...
very good for celebration i think... smile
Clam Chowder  RM 12.90

Clam Chowder RM 12.90

 
have you spotted the baby clam?
yes! there were plenty of them in it...
baby clams, diced potatoes, carrots, onions and celeries in creamy soup...
served in a sour-dough bread bowl~
this was yummy!
hardly get a good clam chowder in the market now...
and Swensen's have it... lol
Creamy Mushroom  RM 12.90

Creamy Mushroom RM 12.90

 
this was AWESOME! i love it!
creamy mushroom soup served in sour-dough bread bowl~
rich, creamy and goes really well with the bread...
i'm craving of it now by looking at the picture...
hmm... tasty!! highly recommended... lol
Grilled Chicken Burger  RM 18.90

Grilled Chicken Burger RM 18.90

 
grilled chicken thigh topped with slice of pineapple, cherry and BBQ sauce...
served with fries and coleslaw~
the chicken was tender and juicy...
but it has too much BBQ sauce on it and made it tasted a little too sweet...
not what i will pick from the menu again...
Chicken Baked Rice  RM 17.90

Chicken Baked Rice RM 17.90

 
fried breaded chicken baked with savoury rice and cheese in white sauce...
very generous on the cheese...
i took one bite of the rice...
cooked to perfection and really cheesy~ not bad! smile
Curry Chicken Baked Rice  RM 17.90

Curry Chicken Baked Rice RM 17.90

 
curry chicken baked with savoury rice topped with keropok...
i don't really like it as the curry tasted like canned curry...
and the chicken tasted like frozen chicken...
i will not recommend this item, but if you would like to give it a try...
please do so~ who knows they might have some improvement... mad
Mac N' Cheese  RM 18.90

Mac N' Cheese RM 18.90

 
macaroni, mushrooms and onions baked with cheese and cream sauce...
it was really tasty... i love the smaller macaroni...
portioning of the cheese was just nice...
i finished the whole dish~ shocked
if you love cheese like i do, pick this and you will love it too...
Teriyaki Chicken Pasta  RM 24.90

Teriyaki Chicken Pasta RM 24.90

 
grilled chicken thigh topped with Teriyaki sauce served with spaghetti and vegetables...
the chicken was grilled to perfection, tender and juicy...
but the overloaded Teriyaki sauce has spoilt the whole dish...
too much on the sauce has made the spaghetti tasted too sweet...
or else, it could be really delicious~
Chili Crab Pasta  RM 28.90

Chili Crab Pasta RM 28.90

 
spaghetti, fish fillet and mushrooms in Swensen's chef chili crab sauce...
topped with fried soft shell crab...
the soft shell crab was not really crispy and i think the chili crab sauce could be spicier...
it will not be a good choice for those who takes chili with everything...
but will be just nice for those who like less spicy food...

we had a great night with good food and good companionship... smile

the Mille Crepe expert OK Aug 13, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Western variety | Sweets/Snack | Bakery / Cake / Kuih

Mille Crepe is a dessert that suddenly became very popular lately... people are just so into it... places where selling mille crepe sure can get the crowd no matter where it's located at... Winter Lover Bakery House is one of the examples... when i first saw their signboard, searched through the internet, it was only 2 reviews... 2 months later, it became another hot spot in town~ shocked
they have cosy and simple interior, can easily hang around with couple of good friends for the whole afternoon... it will be perfect if they can have some sofa seats... mad too demanding... tongue

Crepe display fridge and Winter Lover wallpaper~

 
looking at the display fridge, we wanted to have everything... everything seem so attractive~ but we went after lunch, how to fit everything in our tummy? keep others for the next visit~ smile
Iced Peach Fruit Tea  RM 6.90

Iced Peach Fruit Tea RM 6.90

 
the best looking iced drink of the day~
almost every table have at least one Iced Peach Fruit Tea...
very refreshing and not too sweet...
best for a hot sunny afternoon or evening...
behind the Iced Peach Fruit Tea, on the left in the picture is Fresh Honey Lemon selling at RM 4.90...
baby sis said they forgot to put honey in it~
too sour and no honey...
next to the Fresh Honey Lemon is Iced Lemon Tea selling at RM 4.90...
they gave it a special name but i can't remember it~
again, they forgot the lemon...
it was Iced Tea, no lemon in it... huffy
3 in 1 Mille Crepe  RM 9.90

3 in 1 Mille Crepe RM 9.90

 
this 3 in 1 Mille Crepe was a combination of Vanilla, Chocolate and Strawberry...
if you are a fan of Nestle's Neapolitan flavour ice cream...
you will love this Mille Crepe very much~
really tasted like having the ice cream... lol
Grand Marnier Orange & Chocolate Mille Crepe  RM 9.90

Grand Marnier Orange & Chocolate Mille Crepe RM 9.90

 
this was recommended by the worker...
using the first class orange flavoured liquor, Grand Marnier...
it was good~!! the mixture of orange and chocolate is always good...
Hokkaido Milk Mille Crepe  RM 9.90

Hokkaido Milk Mille Crepe RM 9.90

 
this was another recommendation for us...
it was really milky and both my baby sis and the boyfie don't like it~
to me, it was just nice...
somehow, we all know Hokkaido Milk is meant to be milky... tongue

Winter Lover have more than 15 flavours of Mille Crepe... most of it are their very own creations...
i met a lady who go everyday just to try every type of the crepe... shocked
but, i personally think that there are rooms of improvement for their service...
maybe the waiter and waitress should smile a little more~ lol

whenever we feel like having Japanese food but not sushi...

dinner at Ben's place Smile Sep 28, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Western variety | Restaurant

it was last month buddies gathering~
we fixed it once a month on this year CNY...
and i'm glad that we are keeping the promise...
actually it's not difficult at all...
almost every month we will have someone's birthday to celebrate...
on the months that no celebration, that's where we plan for gathering~
this time was at Ben's General Food Store, Bangsar Village I...
Bangsar has became a common location for our gatherings or celebrations...
just because it's in the middle of everyone's staying place...
hmm... seem like i've gone too far~ tongue
let's back to the topic...
Fried Eggplant & Sliced Chicken

Fried Eggplant & Sliced Chicken

 
this fried eggplant with sliced chicken tasted just like our Chinese style fried eggplant...
only difference is it was a cold dish...
served with french beans, kicap manis and garlic dressing...
it was really good that i finished all 2 portions...
why 2 portions?
because they served me the wrong one which supposedly the Roasted Cod Fish...
Half Spit-Roasted Chicken with 2 sides  RM 29.90

Half Spit-Roasted Chicken with 2 sides RM 29.90

 
i remember seeing a photo of the roasted chicken in their oven from a blog...
that's the main reason why i wanted to try...
this half roasted chicken served with their special brown sauce and 2 salads...
salads choose from the salad bar~
and yes! it was tasty...
roasted to perfection, chicken remains juicy and tender... lol
Marinated Button Mushrooms & Barley

Marinated Button Mushrooms & Barley

 
button mushrooms & barley salad is the most popular salad in Ben's...
very good reviews from bloggers...
served with spring onions, soy and lemon~
hmm... i won't say it was not good, just that not what i like...
too sour to my liking... still prefer the eggplant~ shocked
Roasted Cod Fish & Pineapple

Roasted Cod Fish & Pineapple

 
another salad with high ranking among the bloggers...
served with green chili, cucumber, tomatoes, coriander, and coconut milk dressing...
overall was quite okay, only the cod fish was too fishy...
kinda disappointed... mad
Mushroom Lasagna  RM 23.90

Mushroom Lasagna RM 23.90

 
Ben's has very famous lasagna...
especially the B.I.G Lasagna with minced beef filling...
i wasn't on the mood of having beef that day~
so, i had the mushroom one...
it was really delicious with generous minced mushrooms and cheese...
will definitely go back again just for the lasagna... yum yum! smile
Ben's General Food Store in BVI

Ben's General Food Store in BVI

 
while waiting for my girls to be ready to go home...
i walked around and took a few shot...
with the big signboard hanging on the fences, hardly to be missed...
salad bar

salad bar

 
the salad bar offers variety of salads...
pick your salad after the orders placed...
all the salads seem really delicious and attractive~
another entrance

another entrance

 
i was wondering are they doing another kind of business besides...
but it was the same outlet with another entrance~
Ben's has a few outlets located at different locations...
very convenient and easy to be found...
will definitely go back for the lasagna and of course all the others menu... ^^
